Politics in the country


Why does the Awami League not join in the parliament to discuss the issues of concerns with the BNP lawmakers? Why do they take the road to creating more anarchy and impeding public movement?

I don't have any inclination towards any party politics but we, the general public, need a place where we can live and die comfortably without any intimidation and threats.

Why the general public will suffer though they are innocent law abiding people of the country? Our political parties, while they are in power, forget all the good words and start plundering and making money leaving the ethical values outside their course of action.

I will blame both the Awami League and the BNP for not being able to play the critical and effective role in the parliament as well as in the general political arena. Both of them are partly responsible for creating political unrest in the country.

Politics is not meant for causing suffering to the general public and while an elected government is there, please allow them to rule the country for the period as stipulated in the constitution and the opposition should go ahead with good work to gain public support for the next term in a disciplined way.

None of the political parties can claim they will be in power every time as they did all good works during their tenure. In democracy you have to respect the people's verdict and work together and closely.

I once again would like to raise the concern, please don't go for chaos using bitter, slang words.

At the same time, our politicians should value the real contributions of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and Ziaur Rahman.
